Enchanted/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • While Giselle and Robert worked out better in the end, it’s actually sweet that Edward and Giselle both wanted to marry each other.
  • Chances are you’re not the only one (assuming you did) who went "awwww," when Robert watches Giselle sleep on the couch, and decides to let her stay for the night instead of kicking her out, like he planned.
  • Robert choosing to save Giselle…and then letting her stay in his apartment. And no, he did not end up regretting that. And all.
    • And then later, Giselle returning the favor by preventing Edward (a Hero Antagonist) from attacking Robert.
  • Blink and you'll miss it - Giselle throughout the movie insists that singing to the girl you love is the best way to let her know. When they dance together at the ball, Robert softly sings along with the band's crooner. Pass the tissues, please.
  • Robert is cynical, but he is obviously falling for Disney Princess-turned-real Giselle. When they dance at the ball, romantic song in the background, Robert starts softly singing along for her... even though he earlier said in the movie that he "doesn't dance" and "doesn't sing." Cue any girls watching to movie to go "Awwww!!!"
  • The True Love's Kiss scene. Seeing that Edward's kiss has failed to wake Giselle, Robert goes over to her and kisses her. Giselle's eyes flutter open. She looks up toward Robert, and whispers, relievedly:

Giselle: I knew it was you.

  • When, at the end, Edward ends up with Robert's girlfriend, that's a very short but very heartwarming scene. Because it would have broken this troper's heart to see the left-overs be left alone and to be honest she seemed to be very enthusiastic about the world-change. For that matter, when you think about Edward's character, you know that he did really love Giselle... but when he realized that his kiss wouldn't work, he turned around and asked Robert to do it. It showed that he was very open-minded, good at accepting the truth and the inevitable, and would then proceed to look for other available solutions. I then became a huge Edward fan.
  • Edward's delighted expression when he realized that Giselle and Robert were obviously meant for each other made him this troper's favorite character.
  • "It's a perfect fit." Her expression totally perfected the scene.
  • Hell, just Enchanted as a whole for this editor. She can be pretty cynical about the world, but she came out of the theater dancing. Even now, it's a big WAFF movie for me.
